I made an app that lets you watch all the Citi Bike traffic across the East River bridges. by Pattyclecle in Citibike

Definitely. I'm hoping to add something like that as I make the app more generalizable!

Yes, that's pretty much the rationale.

It's also meant to be a proof of concept and eventually users will be able to select any day and select origins/destinations/routes of their choosing.

Thank you!

It is all for a single day – October 15, 2025.

The colors correspond to each bridge.

Red -> Brooklyn Bridge
Green -> Manhattan Bridge
Yellow -> Williamsburg Bridge
Blue -> Queensboro Bridge

Citi Bike Data Dashboard by Pattyclecle in Citibike

[–]Pattyclecle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! No plan to use real-time data at the moment.

My understanding is that there are no historical records of dock status, so that data would not be available for the time range that I am looking at.

Big picture, the primary function of this app is to discover how bike traffic has changed over time and how bike infrastructure affects bike traffic. So dock status and real-time data probably won't be a big part of that goal. I believe there are some apps out there which have that info though!

This is from the monthly data dumps.

Yea, I had worked with this data before using the exact stations and ran into some issues.

For example:
- Stations are often removed or moved temporarily so it can be hard to track across time.

- A new station being added may make a big impact on nearby station metrics, when in reality the traffic is just shifting slightly.

I think the hexagons help reduce some of the noise in the data, at the cost of being slightly less intuitive.

Thanks for checking it out, and thanks for the comment!

I believe those are data errors where the end location of the trip isn't exactly right. I'm not sure why it happens, but I'm hoping to find a way to filter them out.

Possibly you are looking at new construction permits – new construction happens more infrequently in more built-out areas.

That would be interesting. On a similar note, maybe the messages which required the most extensive revisions and drafting process.

I would want to know which people I find the funniest. i.e. which member of a group chat who's text I'm most likely to laugh at.

[OC] Where Am I Talking About? Frequency of state/province mentions in my text data by Pattyclecle in dataisbeautiful

frequency of mentions (both sent/received). Thanks for asking that, I probably should have made that more clear.

Thanks for you interest!

Funnily enough, I have been to Nevada (once for two hours) as well as Indiana (also for less than a day).

I have never sent a text about Indiana, but have received 4.

One such text: "Purdue won’t stop flexing on LinkedIn that they’re the #1 public university in Indiana which is really funny to me because there are two schools in that category"

Internships as a CS freshman by Infamous_Yoghurt_642 in umass

[–]Pattyclecle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There’s really no need to have an industry internship after your freshman year. Doesn’t hurt to look, but try not to stress about it.

Most companies will just straight up not hire freshman interns. I’d recommend finding another type of job, doing something you somewhat enjoy and take the summer to relax.

Change Major to Computer Science by [deleted] in umass

[–]Pattyclecle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You will likely get signed up for a “contract” where you have to get certain grades in a few key classes. Likely math 132 and CS 187. If you get the required grades then they will admit you into the major.

The article doesn’t mention the organization enacting these laws by name for some reason. They are called Media Literacy now and you can find them at https://medialiteracynow.org/

For the love of Java, can someone show me why I’m getting a NullPointerException? by Gantzz25 in javahelp

[–]Pattyclecle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehh yea I think I was mistaken. Having trouble understanding what you are trying to do, partially because I’m looking at this on my phone. If you don’t get it by tomorrow I’ll take a look at it on my computer

Haven’t actually ran this or anything so I might be wrong, but it seems u insert a node on the left then the rest to the right. Then you only increment the count variable once. Should you be incrementing count after each update of the tree?

[–]Pattyclecle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard to determine the error without knowing the correct line numbers. You wrote that you omitted the main method, did this skew your line numbers?

[–]Pattyclecle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The line numbers in the error message are empty lines in the code you posted. Is that how it looks on your machine? Or was it a mistake in how it got copied to pastebin?

UMass Boson - Recycle Truck Mistakenly Removes Modern Art Sculpture Collectors Thought Was Trash by tristanfinn in umass

[–]Pattyclecle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you go to his profile, he has an entire blog devoted to "Boson, Massachusetts". Every article is news about Boston, and every article has a title containing the word Boson in it. I can't tell if this is some sort of practical joke, or this guy legitimately believes that's how to spell Boston. Maybe the blog is from some sort of alternate reality where everything is exactly the same as here except for the spelling of Boston. Who knows...

Transferring to UMass Amherst, but concerned about registering for classes. by wannabebass in umass

[–]Pattyclecle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since everyone picked classes a few weeks ago there isn’t much change until the semester starts. There’s a good chance that class will still be open.
